My favorite community experience on Skool at the moment!
CLUES is a special place because of its unique charismatic leader. Ruben ensures an utmost level of integration and organization of all the parts that go into a fleshed out, thriving community. When you decide to go with the current no-brainer offer that gets you the Premium package at a heavily reduced price, Ruben personally audits your community within days! The feedback provided is very very helpful. There are so many things for you to improve upon that only an outsider can notice. Except not just any outsider, but one who knows how to engineer the near-perfect Skool community culture in their own community. Inside CLUES, this dedication to excellence is on the daily agenda.

Curiosity is what drives us all - especially inside CLUES
Ruben is amazing guy, always curious and friendly, making everyone feel great. I’ve joined to learn what works and what not for making my own community engage better, and I’ve learned many lessons just seeing what Ruben does and how he interacts with everyone.

Do The Boring Work is a great community for prospective and current virtual assistants to get the help that they need! Chastity does a great job giving resources and advice to newbie VA's and she has a mentorship option that is amazing! If you ever wanted to be a VA and don't know where to begin and want some one on one help, Do the Boring Work is the place to be!

Amazing VA Community!
I’ve had a great experience being part of the Do the Boring Work Skool community. Chastity is truly an amazing mentor. She’s incredibly hands-on, genuinely invested in helping others succeed, and brings a wealth of knowledge to everything she teaches. What really stands out is how approachable and open she is. She not only welcomes new ideas from the community but consistently brings her own fresh, creative perspectives that keep things engaging and relevant. You can tell she’s passionate about what she does and about seeing others grow. If you’re looking for a supportive environment with real guidance and practical insight, this community is definitely worth being a part of!
